First Footage: NetEnt’s The Legend of Shangri-La: Cluster Pays Slot

Published on 3rd August 2017 by Adam

This just in! NetEnt have released a teaser trailer for their upcoming video slot The Legend of Shangri-La: Cluster Pays, which you can see above. We noted in our overview of NetEnt’s Q3 roadmap that this 21st September drop would be the quarter’s final instalment – although we’ve got a pretty good idea of what’s coming in October – and it looks set to be a legendary way to close out the summer.

Let’s take you through all we know about The Legend of Shangri-La slot by NetEnt and what to expect as release day looms.

The Legend of Shangri-La Uses Cluster Pays for Rewards

If you’re a regular NetEnt gamer then you may already be aware of their revolutionary Cluster Pays feature. Whilst the norm for online casino video slots is to payout for combinations made from side-to-side, NetEnt have demonstrated their intuition once again.

Instead, and included within The Legend of Shangri-La, you will be awarded those lucrative coin wins for bunches of symbols landing next to each other either horizontally or vertically.

NetEnt’s The Legend of Shangri-La Slot Special Features

Although we are sometimes baffled as to a particular slot’s theme when analysing NetEnt’s roadmaps, Shangri-La was the big giveaway here. As we detailed in our The Legend of Shangri-La casino slot preview, the name is a clear reference to the fictional Himalayan valley in James Hilton’s 1933 Lost Horizon story.

So, predicting a tranquil and colourful backdrop for NetEnt’s September venture wasn’t too taxing on our minds. However, we weren’t exactly sure what special features would be included in The Legend of Shangri-La’s casino game. Now we do:

Sticky Re-Spins

Random Substitutions

Nudge Reel

Free Spins

For a more comprehensive analysis of this casino slot and its features, NetEnt Casino will shortly be releasing our very own The Legend of Shangri-La slot video review. We’ve already made our debut for new games with a NetEnt Emojiplanet slot video review, so be sure to check out the next instalment in the coming days and weeks.

What to Look Out for Next as The Legend of Shangri-La Beckons
